🧵1/2 "It is increasingly clear that smart phones are a distraction in school and a potential source of harm to young people. They are a useful tool in life, but they don't belong inside schools, and some time disconnected can only be good for young people." - @russellhobby

Today I’m launching my Private Members’ Bill - the Safer Phones Bill - to protect children from the harms that can be caused by excessive screen time, and the use of social media and other apps, many of them addictive by design. 👉 saferphonesbill.co.uk

Solidarity and love to all my Muslim friends and colleagues, and others on this platform. It must be so upsetting and frightening the scenes the last couple of days. I hope and believe the racists are the minority, and that decency outweighs hate.

It's good to hear voices from across the education sector call out these appalling comments.
